Main attractions
The famous ancient walled city, 'The Medina' of Marrakech, whisks you back in time, with it's Aladdin's caves of Incomparably seductive 'souks' selling everything from Berber carpets, spices, silver to and hand-turned wood and leather goods is just ten minutes away by car
The Place Jamaa el-Fna, the heart of the Medina and the liveliest, most un-reconstituted UNESCO World Heritage Site ever seen. The juice bars and snake charmers during the day, give way to an alfresco market of fresh food stalls in the evenings.
South of the Place Jemaa el-Fna, there are palaces, gardens, and museums, such as Dar Si Said, dedicated to the arts and folk crafts of Morocco.
On twisting alleyways nearby is Dar Tiskiwin, an elegant town house, open to the public as a museum and full of Moroccan and sub-Saharan wonders collected by Bert Flint, a Dutch expatriate.
Retreat to one of the many cafes and watch the goings-on from a distance. In terms of views, though not of food, the best are the rooftop cafes. From here you can see the entire fabulous square of Jemaa el Fna, wonderfully lit at night.
The Koutoubia mosque, a Marrakech landmark, surrounded by sun struck rose gardens and distinguished by a 230ft, pink sandstone tower.
Ben Youssef Medersa, one of the Muslim world's great educational centres.
The recently restored, domed Qubba, a Medieval water station, and the Museum of Marrakech, which puts contemporary art in the frame of a late 19th century Moroccan palace.
WHERE TO EAT
Dar Moha, 81 Dar el Bacha, 38-64-00, set in a garden around a pool, and Dar Zellij, 1 Kaasour Sidi Ben Slimane, 38-26-27, in a fastidiously renovated 17th century mansion with carved cedar ceilings and hand-cut zellij tile, specialise in fine, traditional Moroccan fare. Multi-course dinners run €25-€30, and both restaurants have wine lists.
Casa Lalla, Rue Riad Zitoune Lakdime, 16 Derb Jamaa, 42-97-57, offers a set-price menu created by Michelin-starred British chef Richard Neat. There is one sitting at 8 p.m., and only 14 people are served each night, so the required reservations are hard to come by. The price per person is about €25, and diners may bring in their own wine.
Le Pavillon, 47 Derb Zaouia, 38-70-40, and Le Foundouk, 55 El Moukef Souk Hal Fassi Kat Bennahid, 37-81-90, serve French food and wine. Both are in the heart of the Medina. Dinner about €25.
Bo-Zin, Route de l'Ourika, 38-80-12, is a 15-minute drive south of town, with a beautiful cactus garden for al fresco dining. The cuisine is chiefly Thai and there is a full bar. The price for a three-course dinner is €25-€35, not including drinks.
